The
Best robot vacuum uk robot vacuum cleaners reviews Vacuum That Mops
Noah Pinsonnault works as a product analyst at Good Housekeeping's Home Care and Cleaning Lab.
He reviews and tests cleaning equipment, with a focus on robot vacuums and mopping combos. Multitaskers are ideal for those looking to remove mopping from their list of things to do. Some of them have excellent mapping and obstacle avoidance. Some even wash and refill mopping pads themselves for a hands-free clean.
The Eufy S1 Pro
This is the model you should pick if you are looking for a robot vacuum cleaner that also mop. It is smaller than other models, making it easier to maneuver in tight corners or under furniture. It has a 220-degree lidar that combined with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it some of the most effective navigation and obstacle avoidance I've ever seen in a robot vacuum. It's got a battery of 4600mAh which can last up to 170 mins when mopping and sucking is set to standard mode. (It can run longer on turbo). It will even return to the dock to top up its battery part way through a clean.
It's very fast and does a fantastic job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It can vacuum carpeted rooms fast, and hardwood floors in the kitchen, living room and hallways in just one pass. Its 8,000pa motor is able to clean dirt, pet hair, and even droppings easily. Carpet detection automatically increases power when it detects rugs and the dual side brush assists in removing debris from corners.
The mopping efficiency is less impressive, but not by a lot. The rotating mop spins at a high velocity and it pushes down with 2.2lbs of force, effortlessly cleaning up dirt and staining. I've also noticed that the front arms stick out a bit more than other robots, which can be helpful for getting into tight corners and along baseboards. The front arms can also be used to scoop up larger pieces of debris, like books and broken toys.
The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mops and vacuums I've tried. It doesn't create the same volume of sound when mopping or vacuuming, and is quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The only issue is that the S1 Pro must use a specific cleaning solution to perform its mopping function and is separate from the vacuum. It is easy to install, and it works well. However when you purchase this robot vacuum solely to mop, you will need to pay attention to this.
The Roborock Q Revo
The Q Revo stands apart from most robot vacuums that mops in its class. It comes with a wide array of features that make it a great option for homeowners looking for an efficient, flexible and ad-hoc cleaning machine.
The device is equipped with an efficient cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensor technology with an RGB camera. This enables it to map out your home and identify furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean efficiently and effectively. This will result in an effective, consistent cleaning that is also quite quick.
In terms of mopping, the Q Revo's DuoRoller mop pads can be used to reach many different surface areas. This includes corners and baseboards as well as other difficult-to-access spots. They also come with a stretchy side brush that extends to reach the floor near walls and other fixtures. The mop pads are also washable and dry to eliminate odors and stop buildup.
App-based customization is a different interesting feature. The Q Revo allows you to adjust the amount of suction, and choose between a back-andforth or more random patterns. You can also choose the number of passes, which determines how fast it can move around your home. You can also turn off the side brush in order to prevent damage to carpets and rug.
The device is costly, but has many smart features. It is important to note that the device will incur periodic costs in the form of mopping supplies and regular maintenance. For instance the brushroll has to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to twelve months. The filter is recommended to be cleaned after 150 hours, and mop pads should be changed every three months.
This robot vacuum that mops has an excellent rating on Amazon and comes with a wide array of physical automation features. This includes an energy button that serves as a general "Clean button as well as a Home button that will take it back to its base station after completing the
cleaning robot mop and vacuum process. It also has a multi-functional dock that automatically empties the dustbin and refills its water tank to mop and washes and dries its mop pads.
The Shark Matrix Plus
The Shark Matrix Plus will be an ideal option for busy professionals or anyone who needs to keep their home tidy without spending too much time doing chores. Its incredibly fast performance, sophisticated navigation and long battery life make it simple to keep a clean home with little effort.
The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop, which means it is able to handle both vacuuming and mopping. The
robot hoover and mop comes with two modules: a combined dry bin and reservoir of water, and a separate mopping module with microfiber pads that snap into and out of position. It's not the most modern thing to have separate modules for vacuuming and mopping however it does mean that you don't have to fret about changing the bags for disposables or refilling the tank of water.
Our test participants discovered that the Matrix Plus did a great job at both vacuuming and mopping. Its most impressive feature is its precise floorplan map, which it employs when cleaning. This made it a breeze for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture, rugs and other obstacles. The app also offers the option to set "No-Go zones" as well as virtual barriers that help to protect specific areas of your home from being swept with a mop.
The Matrix Plus also did a surprising job of picking up hair from pets. It was able to capture a large amount of hair that our cats shed, and even got into the nooks and crannies of our stairs which other robots struggled. It was quiet and had some pleasant jingles that let you know when it was starting or finished its work.
The app was too easy and you had to change the modules every time you switched between vacuuming and mops. The app doesn't have the capacity to contain multiple maps, which can be a pain when you live in a house with a mix of floors. The Matrix Plus is a good choice for people who want an intelligent robot that can perform both vacuuming and mopping.
The Yiko X1 Omni
The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that mops in our review, but it also has unique features that make it worth a look. The X1 Omni's main draw is its enormous dock which doubles as the robot's charging base as well as housing for two 4 liter water tanks, a cleaning sink and an automatic 2.5-liter dust bin that automatically empties.
The base comes with a few control buttons, which allow you to manually start cleaning tasks, recall the
robot Vacuums That mop or run the dock’s auto-emptying procedure. Hold down two buttons to switch on a child lock, which is a nice option for parents concerned about their children playing with the vacuum.
The Omni Omni like other
robotic hoovers vacuums, utilizes its camera to identify furniture and obstacles in its path. It will steer clear of them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system can map your home 10 times faster than standard laser detection systems and is four times more precise in finding objects.
This can cause the X1 to become stuck if it is entangled in an obstacle like a power cable draped over a rug. It will not work until you manually untangle it. While it was not common, it was a frustrating experience when it did happen particularly since the X1 Omni does not have a "stuck" status alert on its app.
Another issue that could be a problem is another issue is the X1 Omni's inability to automatically change between vacuuming and mopping modes during cleaning. You'll have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't too bad but mopping pads don't get cleaned or dried between use. This could lead to mildew and mold.
The X1 Omni looks great, thanks to the Jacob Jensen design team (of Bang & Olufsen fame), who created its sleek, modern base and mopping pad. It's a huge difference from the utilitarian black bases of rivals such as Roborock or iRobot. And it's an excellent choice for an industry dominated by boxy units.
